about us

Lair of Abraxas is a Geek sanctuary, where you can come to relax, unwind, enjoy games, tea, a boutique, and share in the Geek culture.

Started by owners Riva & Red, the vision was simple. Create a safe, inviting place for all nerds, geeks, persons of all fandoms and sub-cultures, to come and enjoy tea, e-hookah and other refreshments alongside their peers.

Offering many things to drink, smoke, read and play, the Lair of Abraxas is the best spot to indulge your nerdy sides. With a library of hundreds of books, and over 300 board games, the Lair will keep you entertained and happy long into the night.

The D&D Room

Our Dungeons and Dragons room is available to reserve! Call for specific dates. The table has a computer screen installed, ready to connect, and is protected by a Plexiglas layer for you to put a map on! There is ambient LED lighting to create whatever mood your players are in, whether it be blue for ocean travel, red for bloody battles, or green for (ahem) town transactions that totally do not have the rogue pick-pocketing a poor merchant vendor.

The D&D Room

We are ever expanding our DnD room’s library. Bring your own or use some of ours!

The Games

We have over 300 games at your disposal! We’re constantly getting in more. Bring your group for a game of Cards Against Humanity, Betrayal at Baldur’s Gate, or even just Uno!

The Lair

Tables are ready for you to use. Play a game, drink some tea, smoke a hookah, do your homework, or plot world domination. The uses are endless!

The Lair

Yes, we even have blankets.

Leatherworking Class

Gwynne Cox with Midnight Fox Leather hosts a class at the Lair to teach you some finer points to working with leather!

Valhalla Nights
